He examines its unusual features including AR/AK-style magazine loading, ambidextrous controls with quirks, and the distinctive ammunition it fires. While he finds the gun fun to shoot with excellent trigger and manageable recoil, he’s uncertain about its practical application beyond novelty appeal.
